Game Balls, Game Goats & FU's.......vs Ratbirds

Its not always about the stat line. He had two good pressures and at least three good drop offs into coverage, one really confused flacco and caused a throw away. Yes he hasnt taken that next step we were all hoping he would, but hes way better than Jarvis ever was.

S Watt you're saying is there is more to the position than just stat lines...................... I AGREE Dupree does more than most here give him credit for.



Salute the nation
 
Did I miss something Burns did wrong? That was a garbage PI call, it was perfect coverage, made Wallace quit on the route. Did they even complete much on Burns?

So uncharacteristic of any Steeler team I've seen in my life.

Before...
A team that used to smash your mouth early and then just do enough in the end to win.
Traditionally a good defense.
Rarely a comeback team when down a TD or more.

Hey, I aint complaining. To comeback the way they do shows a lot of heart and character...what it takes to be a champion!
 
Game Balls:

Ben
Brown
Bell
Watt.
Boswell.

Goats:

The defense I know were missing some key pieces but, damn it looked pretty bad at times.
Dupree: Im not going to beat my dead horse.
I feel bad lol
Mitchells first game back, Haden out, Sensabaugh, UGH, Davis had a bad game.

Fu to Officiating. Both teams had to over come bad calls. The false start on decastro was phantom. Many of them were.
FU to Keith butler, for not seeing that 39 yr old deebo is better than 1st round pick dupree
FU to Goodell, For the JUJU suspension
FU to Goodell for equating what juju did to what gronk did.
FU to Art Jr. For not pitching a ***** about it.
 
the Dline, which should be the best line on our D was somewhat lackluster against the ravens, then the LBs missed a ton of tackles

Besides the Two PIs which one was total bullshit what other passes did Burns give up?? Cant remember

I can't remember them really completing anything his way, he had that pass defense in the end zone, and the PI vs Wallace, he played that perfectly, that was the worst call all night. That's two weeks in a row that he was barely thrown at.

So whats with the Burns sucks posts im seeing.
 
James. He’s no Gronk but the guy isn’t flashy. He’s solid. He makes catches and works the middle and combat catches well. IMO he’s the starter. China McDonald made good catches but continually finds his way into the Staley Sweatsuit.

Watt had shown why he’s the starter. The kid has a motor and he’s a beast. Hopefully he becomes DROY.

Bryant had an descent game on offense and lackluster return game.
Rosie Nix Needs to touch the ball a few more times a game.

James did well. I think Mcdonald is a much better blocker. And decent pass catcher. Idk what the deal is with his injuries though.

FU to Bryant, he has no heart this year, ****** un on almost every kick of, and even when he catches the ball he does nothing with it. play ing like he doesn't want to be here. oh wait a tic......

This. He’s merely going through the motions. I suspect he resents starting only due to injury.

I dont see lack of effort at all. Lack of big plays but its not effort IMO

Replace Jarvis Dupree. He ******* sucks. His stats????? Zero sacks and One goddamn tackle last night. ONE!

Dupree's stats for the last 4 games, 6 tackles, 2 assists and 1 sack. Put Harrison in his place (I know not his usual side), could it be any worse?

Papillon
 
Couldn't have said it any better than y'all have

The one pass to him in the EZ the ball went to the corner and Bryant just stood there. He may not have for the ball but he could have made an effort and maybe draw a foul. Also noticed on some outside runs his blocking effort was pretty poor. KO returns his head definitely was not in the game. I can't remember ever seeing a game where a returner caused such poor field position multiple times
 
There was a pass down the sideline late where he just stopped running, Ben wasn't happy with him after that one, the guy has no burst or ability to jump anymore.
Also can we through all the plays the involve him getting the ball at or behind the LOSS! Screens and end around, they don't work.

Duce McDonald finally gets outta his sweats and quickly performs an encore of his disappearing for a few weeks act...good thing we only moved down a few spots in the draft to grab yet another china doll TE.

Props to the Outlaw for being available and productive in clutch spots to contribute to another W
 
Our D-Line needs to step up...Tuitt was invisible again.
